Yns2acab first made a name for himself as part of the group ACAB, a reappropriation of a well-known anti-police slogan. Before going solo, he collaborated with rapper Jarod, one of his biggest influences, admired for his technical prowess and sharp pen. While some artists make their mark through rhythm and melody, Yns2acab has always had a deep love for writing. From a young age, he filled notebooks, turning his thoughts into hard-hitting rhymes. Inspired by icons like Kery James and Diam’s, as well as the rap legends from his neighborhood,
Yns2acab places the power of words at the heart of his craft. He started with slam poetry before fully diving into rap. In an interview with XXI, he admitted that being part of a group sometimes held him back, making him search for a flow that didn’t truly suit him.
Now in full control of his artistic direction,
he fully embraces his solo career. With Sang d’encre, his first independent project, he delivers an unconventional introduction, a manifesto blending different styles. He presents a striking, evocative idea: “Rap is a fire.” A fire that has consumed him, a passion that fuels him. A month later, he makes an even stronger impact with MNG Radio, a freestyle where he unleashes his raw talent.
Yns2acab hits hard with Freestyle MNG Radio!
This new track stays true to classic rap traditions. Over a hard-hitting beat, the producer crafts a sharp soundscape where Yns2acab drops razor-sharp punchlines. This freestyle, released on YouTube, is described as “the art of the present moment”, a raw and unfiltered performance.
“While waiting for the public to recognize talent, I dodge the heel, I slalom between good and evil.”
“Either way, you’re pathetic, did you get the mindset? We shoot you even if you have a bulletproof vest, holes in your body like Emmental cheese.”
“There are things in the streets forbidden to those under 18. Don’t lie to me, I know you panic when the gun is pressed against your temple.”
Shot in the heat of the moment and capturing the raw energy of the scene, the video was filmed live as Yns2acab performed his freestyle on MNG Radio. After the introspective journey of Sang d’encre, the artist returns to his roots: sharp, unfiltered, and uncompromising rap.
